I LIKE YOUR BLUE EYES

Even if most of the residents of the mansion were humans, the mansion was not ordinary. The Bancroft family had lived in the mansion for over a hundred years, and a hundred years ago, the world was not as peaceful.

Even the humans were involved in several wars back then, and the situation was no different among the vampires. Thus, the White Castle owned by the Bancroft family was built not as an ordinary residence, but rather special with different types of rooms inside.

There were not only bedrooms, a kitchen, a living room, and also bathrooms in the mansion, but there were also several rooms that functioned as prisons there. Sure enough, it wasn't normal for a house in this era to have a prison, but because the workers in the mansion knew that the mansion had an old history, they only thought that the prison was used in the past when the world was still not this peaceful.

The current owner of the mansion, Evie Bancroft, had also modified some of the above-ground prisons in the mansion. The man who tried to kidnap her should have been staying in one of those prisons, but sadly, that person only stayed in the prison for a few hours before his comrades came to save him last night.

She did say that the man only stayed in the prison until he was rescued last night, but the above-ground prison within the mansion was actually a closed room that looked like a bedroom at first glance. There were no iron bars surrounding it, and instead, it was surrounded by a wall.

The room did look normal, and that was normal because it was meant for humans. If Evie happened to come across a human who dared to offend her, she would let those humans become the denizens of the closed room, and she would only let them go when she was satisfied with her interrogation.

That was her original plan regarding the kidnapper, but she didn't even have the chance to interrogate him since he was no longer in the mansion now. Right now, she could only head into another prison to check on the new prisoner in the mansion.

The prisons above ground were designed for humans, but the ones underground were designed for vampires and werewolves. So, apart from Evie, only Simon and Vernon had access to the dungeon, and that was why she was now walking with the two of them into the dungeon.

The prison above ground looked like a closed chamber, but the one below ground looked like other prisons out there with iron bars that would stop the prisoners from escaping. At this time, she stopped in front of the bars, and both Simon and Vernon also stopped walking behind her.

Behind the bars, she could see a man dressed in black sitting on the ground. At first glance, it looked as if the man had not noticed her arrival and kept his face buried in his knee, but Evie knew that was not the case. She knew the dark-haired man's identity, and that was why she knew that the man had long been aware of her presence in the dungeon.

"It's a fine morning outside. Why do you look so gloomy, young man?" Calmly, Evie asked the man who still refused to lift his head and look at her.

Unlike the prison above ground which even had a bed in each room, this dungeon didn't have one. Not even the ground was covered in marble tiles, but only cement that was full of dirt covered the ground beneath their feet.

This place was far from clean, in fact very dirty. It was quite damp in here, and the cement ground must've been unclean, but the prisoner didn't seem to care as he continued to sit on the dirty ground.

Evie received no response to her words, and the man didn't even want to look at her at the moment. That was why she looked annoyed. Behind the camera, she was known as someone whose patience was as thin as a tissue, and it could be said that the man who kept ignoring her was about to rip the tissue away.

"I brought you all the way from Barevale not just to be my statue! I haven't eaten my breakfast yet, and if you continue to ignore me, I might as well have steak made from wolf meat for breakfast today!" Irritatedly, Evie spoke again, trying to scare the man off even a little.

The man was indeed the werewolf she had brought over from Barevale Town last night. Last night was the night of the full moon, and the werewolf was in his wolf form when Evie used her powers on him and forcefully brought him to Northshear City. Last night, the man had lost consciousness due to her powers, but today things returned to normal as Evie no longer had the power to control the werewolf.

Despite this, she still dared to speak big in front of the werewolf even though she still had no idea how strong the werewolf was.

Right now, she was in her lair, and even the prison would give her the advantage of being able to suppress the powers of any vampire or werewolf while they were being held captive inside, and that was why she could still appear arrogant in front of the prisoner.

And maybe how she just threatened the werewolf gave her a positive result when the werewolf finally lifted his head from his knees, and again, Evie could see those blue eyes glaring at her.

"Turns out it wasn't just my illusion when I saw those blue eyes yesterday when you saved me from the kidnapper," Evie spoke again, sounding amused this time. "I like your blue eyes because they remind me of the most precious blue sapphire, and that's why I'm officially giving you the position of my pet from now on. You agree with my idea, don't you, wolf?"
